Jack Frost, son of Jack of Fables, has left our world and has decided to make his way to the Imperial Homeworld, where his mother is still trapped under a city of thorns. Along the way he will encounter many fantasy monsters, brigands and troops of roving goblins, and have to battle his way through them.

And while Jack Frost undertakes his quest, Jack of Fables is slowly transforming into something unexpected -- and deadly.

I've liked the Jack of Fables series, but it has been getting a bit old. I was done with Jack's antics. I needed something new. Thankfully, Jack's son Jack Frost has more or less taken over the volume. And he's out to make a name for himself as a hero. His naiveté intrigues me. He's just so heroic and innocent, such the opposite of his father. I wonder where the story will lead to next? Here's hoping we see more of Jack Frost and that lazy dragon!
